The game lasted more than ten minutes and neither side scored, but the game was not dull, because both sides were teams that insisted on attacking, and both attacked with great characteristics. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Barcelona's attack was to control the pitch and push forward layer by layer, with subtle runs and successive passes to be a delight to watch. Hoffenheim's offensive is fast and direct, although it lacks the beauty of art, but it is full of the beauty of speed and power, which is more likely to make people's blood boil.

Not to be outdone, Barcelona were not to be outdone after Hoffenheim showed what they were good at, and after a flurry of brilliant playmaking, Pedro nodded in the back and was saved by Nyema.

Next, under the leadership of Chu Zhongtian, Hoffenheim always insisted on their fast attacking style of play, which made Barcelona a little uncomfortable. In particular, Hoffenheim's players started pressing in front of the field.

Possession teams are afraid of pressing, and Barcelona are afraid of it, but few teams can press consistently, so Barcelona is under pressure anytime and anywhere.

For this game, Hoffenheim was very well prepared, and this pressing was naturally among them.

In this game, Rangnick asked everyone to be involved in the defense, the strikers had to fight back on the spot if they lost the ball in the frontcourt, and the nearby teammates had to come up to help, preferably to form a siege.

Barcelona will be around and so will we.

However, Barcelona's walls did not do much for Hoffenheim, because each player at Hoffenheim did not have long possession of the ball, and since the football stayed at his feet for very little, he could not press it.

Especially in the midfield, before the game, Guardiola said that Chu Zhongtian was the core of Hoffenheim's midfield, and everyone should take strict precautions, but Chu Zhongtian did not have much time to control the ball in this game, and he would pass it out quickly after he got the ball. The time it took for the ball to pass through the midfield was very short, and each time it was the Barcelona players who were just about to pounce and find that the target had already passed the ball halfway through.

Hoffenheim pays attention to fast passing and receiving when attacking, which makes Barcelona a little uncomfortable.

Quaresma passed the football to Chu Zhongtian, and as soon as Xavi wanted to go up and entangle him, Chu Zhongtian shook his ankle and directly passed the football to Sana next to him.

Sana didn't hold the ball for a long time after receiving the ball, he shifted to the left, and the ball fell to the feet of Salihovic.

Salihovic took two steps and stabbed the ball to Ibisevic, who retreated in the middle, before Messi came up to defend.

Ibisevic had his back to the attacking direction and had no way to turn around, so he passed the ball back to Chu Zhongtian, who was plugged in. When Chu Zhongtian received the ball in this position, he was already on the opposite side of Butzkes.

Butzkes posted it, but Chu Zhongtian knocked the football to Sana near him with his heel.

In any case, the distance between these two backs is very close, which is why Chu Zhongtian can pass the ball with his heel so confidently and boldly.

His back-heel pass earned him a cheer from the stands. In front of Barcelona, who is good at playing with foot skills, Chu Zhongtian can also do this, which is really a very proud thing.

"Heels! Ha ha! He Ping laughed. You can see that he has a relaxed mentality, which is a good thing, and it is important to be able to maintain a relaxed and calm mind in such an important game! ”

After passing the football to Sana, Chu Zhongtian dodged Buzkes and ran to another position, where Buzkes followed. Sana did not pass the football to Chu Zhongtian, but directly to the full-back Srna who was inserted from the side.

It's a dazzling succession of quick passes, and so far, Barcelona haven't even touched a football.

I was skeptical that Barcelona could enter the final, thinking that they were shit luck, but after watching the game for more than ten minutes, I have to admit that Hoffenheim can go all the way to the final, and they do have a set.

In fact, most Hoffenheim players are just running according to their respective positions, for example, the full-backs are shuttling up and down, the full-backs need one more side-to-center change in addition to the up and down shuttles, and there is nothing unusual about other people's movements, most teams can do it.

But why was Hoffenheim able to do it? That's because they have Chu Zhongtian in their array.

Everyone was running according to their own routes, only Chu Zhongtian's running range was very large, and it could even be said that it was very, very large, covering almost the entire stadium. This kind of running of his connects his teammates who are running in their own routes. As a simple example, a right-back has to pass the ball to the front defender, usually in the sense of a long diagonal pass, but this pass is not very accurate and can be easily spotted by the opponent - because if you pass it with a big foot, it will only be passed to the player on the left wing, and it is relatively easy to defend. But with Chu Zhongtian, the right back can transition the football to Chu Zhongtian, and then Chu Zhongtian will pass or dribble the ball to send the football over, so that the accuracy is higher, it is not easy to be intercepted by the opponent halfway, and there are many ways to choose from, I can achieve this ultimate goal through the passing of two players, I can also bring the football over myself, and as an opponent, I will not know where I want to pass the ball, what I have to do, which increases the difficulty of the defender.

When the football is passed to Chu Zhongtian's feet, Hoffenheim's attack has many possibilities, and Barcelona's defense has to face more options. The Big Foot Long Pass is a multiple-choice question with only one alternative answer, but the Passed to Chu Zhongtian is a multiple-choice question with multiple alternative answers.

This is the role of Chu Zhongtian in Hoffenheim's tactical system.

If Chu Zhongtian didn't have the physical fitness to run and the excellent overall situation, as well as excellent passing and ball control skills, this tactic would not have been able to fight.

Chu Zhongtian is so unique that Hoffenheim has a unique football.

Hoffenheim used their speed to keep pressure on Barcelona.

During this time, Barcelona was a little embarrassed, and their attack could not be played, because they had to spend more energy on defense. When they concede the ball up front, they don't even have time to organize the siege in the front court, they have to quickly return to the defense. If you don't defend yourself, the back will be empty.

It's not that they haven't done this, after losing the ball, they didn't return to the defense at the first time, but surrounded it, and as a result, the opponent passed the football before they surrounded it, and then played a fast attack, and the back defense was weak, Chu Zhongtian randomly chose a point in the front court to threaten the goal guarded by Valdés. If Valdés hadn't done well, I'm afraid they would have fallen behind first.

Chu Zhongtian saw the current situation in Barcelona. He believes in "taking advantage of your illness to kill you" and knows that if you want to score a goal, then now. Barcelona were a little overwhelmed by their own fast football, and maybe Pep Guardiola prepared carefully for this game, but it was clear that Barcelona's players were a little underwhelmed, and they didn't expect Hoffenheim's football to be so fast!

Letting go of this opportunity, and when Barcelona recovered and made adjustments, it will be difficult to score again...... Chu Zhongtian made up his mind and began to look for opportunities.

Barcelona's defence is not monolithic.

Piquet plays an important role in Barcelona's defence, but at the same time he also has his own responsibilities in attack, and when the situation is not open, Piquet will step forward to assist the attack, and his forward insertion is a very powerful weapon, which can often be used wonders. Hence his nickname "Piquenbauer", in fact, Pique's idol is Real Madrid's legendary central defender Hierro, but out of disdain for his sworn enemy, the Catalan media have dubbed him "Piquebauer". The reason why it is compared to Beckenbauer is that he has a strong individual attack, and because of his ability to organize the attack and insert the back row to connect the whole team. Pep Guardiola often uses him as a central striker when the pitch is deadlocked. In the Spanish national team, his scoring ability is also very much needed by the national team. When the team is in trouble, it is often his goal that opens the door to victory.

Beckenbauer once praised Chu Zhongtian and thought that Rangnick had trained him to be his successor. However, he also valued Pique, saying that it was his honor to be called "Pickenbauer", and he would not be angry because of it. That's a high rating.

The Catalan media once said with some disdain that when Chu Zhongtian was also compared to Beckenbauer, Piquee was the real "Pickenbauer", because he proved his all-round ability in the Champions League and the World Cup, what about Chu Zhongtian? Except for one league title in the Bundesliga, his resume in other areas is almost blank.

However, some Chinese media countered that Pikui is not a real Beckenbauer-style player, and it is Chu Zhongtian who can really take over the mantle of Beckenbauer.

The German media are even more desperate, they say that the Catalan media is very happy that Piquet can be compared with Beckenbauer, but our Chu is not on a par with Beckenbauer, he is a new free man, showing a new kind of football...... Let's put aside the grievances and hatreds of the media in several countries for the time being.

Barcelona and Hoffenheim are now in a stalemate, and there is even a faint tendency to lose.

Piques will definitely rush up and join the attack.

That's the chance for Hoffenheim.

Two players with similar characteristics, Chu Zhongtian naturally understands Pi Kui's characteristics and thoughts very well.

He was waiting for Piqui to rush up and join the attack.

In fact, Piqui is indeed brewing to come up and attack, and Barcelona are now at the bottom, yes, the downside, very rarely in the game.

He's going to turn that around. Barcelona's attacking players have almost all been studied thoroughly by Hoffenheim. Xavi had Sana staring at him, and the referee only gave him a verbal warning and did not play a card after a foul-like flying tackle that tackled Xavi to the ground. Sana thus showed Xavi the strength and his dominance on the edge of the box.

Messi, on the other hand, was entangled by Chu Zhongtian, although he could get rid of it, but it was more and more difficult every time, and it took too long, which was not conducive to Barcelona's overall attack.

As for the likes of Andres Iniesta, Pedro and Villa, they were all caught in Hoffenheim's overall defence.

At the moment in the frontcourt, the offensive and defensive order is balanced. This balance is, to put it bluntly, a stalemate, not in the favor of Barcelona and must be broken.

Inserting oneself is an important means of breaking this deadlock.

He was watching, brewing the moment to plug in.

Hoffenheim had just finished an attack and the players were quick to get back into defence. This is their characteristic, they complete the attack, form a dead ball, absolutely do not stay in the front court for a while, all have to retreat to their defensive positions, when attacking like a raging flood pouring down, when retreating like a low tide, they will withdraw in an instant.

Valdés kicked the football big foot to the front, and Chu Zhongtian had the upper hand in the battle with Xavi, and he pushed the football back.

The ball fell to Butzkes' feet, and he was about to pass it forward again when he heard Pique's shout from behind him: "Sergio! Pass me the ball! ”

Knowing that Piqua was about to rush forward, Butzquez turned and passed the football to Piqua, then ran back and came to Pique's position to help him fill in the position.

Pique came up with a football.

Chu Zhongtian's eyes lit up on the other side.

Here's your chance!

What about Butzques' supplementary centre-back? He didn't take this guy seriously at all, he was a midfielder, not a full-time centre-back.

In the face of Ibisevic's interception, Piquet just changed direction and accelerated to shake him away.

As a centre-back, Pique's delicate skills are rare, which may have something to do with the fact that he was trained at La Masia's academy as a child.

Chu Zhongtian turned his head to look for Messi, and waited on the right side. It's not certain whether Pique will pass the football to Messi, Chu Zhongtian decided to choose a proper position, he ran to the position between the wing and the middle, just in front of Messi, and he used this position to force Pique not to pass the ball to Messi - if you want to pass the ball, you will be cut off by me. I believe that with Pique's football awareness, it is impossible not to know this.

He then made a gesture to Sana, motioning for him to follow Xavi closely. Doing so forced Piqui to dribble forward on his own. When rushing to the edge of the penalty area...... He didn't have a way to go.

After Pique's past Ibisevic, there were only Hoffenheim's two midfielders in front of him. He looked left and right, Chu Zhongtian was paying attention to Messi - the intention was too obvious, stuck in front of his and Messi's passing route, not to look back at Messi, this was not to prevent Messi for what?

If you pass it on yourself, you will fall into the hands of the other party.

He looked to the other side, and Harvey was beside Sana, who was not leaving.

Further on, Andres Iniesta, Villa and Pedro are not in the best position to receive the ball.

In front of him, however, there was a clear empty corridor, in which no Hoffenheim player could get to the edge of their penalty area. Then face the centre-backs on the opposite side...... It's a huge temptation to mess up Hoffenheim's defence if it can break through.

Piquet doesn't think there are any traps in between, and even if there are, he can quickly separate the football and get out of it calmly. Barcelona's overall capacity can guarantee this.

Thinking of this, he made a feint to pass the ball to Messi, deceived Chu Zhongtian to take a step back, and followed himself to push the football forward in a straight line and break through!

"Piqui! Break with the ball! He killed it! ”

'It's an attacking style that Barcelona are good at! The centre-backs plug in the back row and disrupt the opposition's defence! ”

'The Hoffenheim backline didn't seem to expect Piquee to get so forward...... Some of them don't know what to do. ”

But in fact, the Hoffenheim players are almost vomiting when they watch the video of Barcelona's game, so how can they not know the characteristics of Pique?

Sana saw Piqué leading forward, and immediately rushed forward.

When he came to the distance that Piqué could feel, Piqui gave the football to Xavi and continued to run on his own.

Two over one!

Xavi didn't stop the ball and gave him the ball back, like a wall.

When Piqui received the ball, he was already facing Hoffenheim's centre-backs, a very dangerous distance – dangerous for Hoffenheim, of course.

He can play all sorts of games with Barcelona's nimble forwards here, and he can put in a through ball as long as he runs open. Or does he not need to look at the running position of his forward teammates at all, and just push the pass directly, and if he can receive it, it will be a lore, and he can't receive it? The odds of not receiving it are too low, how could the Barcelona players not know to take advantage of such an opportunity after so many years of playing together and receiving consistent football training from the academy onwards?

Piqué lowered his head to adjust the ball, intending to push the pass in a straight line. To his left, there is a gap between Hoffenheim's centre-backs Camper and Simunich, and as long as the ball can be passed, whether it is Villa or Pedro, it will be difficult to receive the ball directly in front of the goalkeeper.

Just as he raised his foot to pass the ball, a foot appeared in front of him and stabbed the ball before him!

And he kicked it on the foot, a stumble!

The person who ruined his good deeds was Chu Zhongtian!

He stabbed the ball to centre-back Camper, and although he was kicked by Pique, he didn't care, turned and ran forward.

Comper didn't stop after receiving Chu Zhongtian's pass, he let the football stay at his feet for a second longer, he could lose the ball, and if he lost the ball in this position, it would be doomed...... He passed the ball directly to Sana, who was closest to him.

Sana turned around and swept the football to Chu Zhongtian, who was inserting forward.

In less than three seconds, the ball was passed to the open field, and Hoffenheim completed all the moves from defense to attack.

It's Hoffenheim's offense!

Fast and sharp attack!!

Chu Zhongtian increased his speed to the fastest, and he rushed forward with the football. Because Butzques was in the centre-back position, there was no one to threaten him within 20 metres of him in the open field.

At the same time, the real central defender Piquee has long been left behind by him!

Rangnick couldn't help but get up from his seat when he saw this scene in the dugout, he knew what it meant! This is an opportunity that Hoffenheim has practiced countless times in his daily training sessions! Opportunities specifically for Pique!

"Attack!!" "Professor," shouted desperately.
